FD labeled SS brake lines?

I got a set of rotors, pads, and SS lines for the FC specifically, but when I opened it up, it says 93-95 RX7 on the SS line package. I'll add a pic in here, anyone know if it'll not fit/will fit?

I'd say NO... bitch at the people you bought them from till they send you the right ones.

It's possible they might fit but I wouldn't try...

I don't know if the FD has those short hard lines like the T2, either...

Make sure you get ones for the four-piston brakes (assuming you're buying for a T2).

The photos on Mazdatrix's website show a different set for FD than for FC. Definitely get in contact with the retailer. Don't try to install them.

Those look like the FC lines (I just changed mine). It's quite possible some shome just blindly slapped a label on there not knowing the difference between FC and FD lines.

There should be identical fittings on boths sides of 1 pair of lines, then the same fittings with banjo fittings (looks like it came with the bolts and washers, too) on the other side for the second set of lines.

You know, you could always jack your car up and take a wheel or two off...

damn that is sexy.

i would not install it. what is there is a minor difference that you only notice when you have your lines off and the package is open. they might not take it back. now you got jacked how ever much you paid for them, plus new ones.

The lengths are different. They should not be installed.
